    Russia's Denis Kudryavtsev took bronze behind Hussein and Magi.

    Not a lot of people are watching that though.

    Hussein is the focus of the snappers and the spectators. He curls into a ball on the track as the scoreboard confirms his victory.

    Once he is back on his feet, he strips off his vest in celebration, before pulling it back on sharpish before an eagle-eyed official can start proceedings.

    "Bring out the cow bells, break out the chocolates, this crowd carried Kariem Hussein to the finish line and carried him to gold. What a tough win, what a tough run.

    "Switzerland don't have too many world class athletes but some have risen to the occasion and he really did that here."

    Dina Asher-Smith speaking to BBC Sport after pulling up in the final of the women's 200m: "I think I might have just done my hamstring. I have a love and hate relationship with it and this was one of the hate days.

    "I 'm happy to have made the final and got a personal best but I'm really disappointed that happened around the bend. At the world juniors it stopped me doing the 200m and the relay, but well done to Jodie. Her finish was amazing."

    "I thought I could get a little bit more out of it tonight but I'm so tired after the Commonwealth Games as well.

    "It's amazing to have three British people in the final. Bianca did well, I'm gutted for Dina, she knew it was going to be touch and go but she's so talented and it will be a real battle with her next year."

    "That was extraordinary. If you look at the time it's the fastest time in the world this year from a heptathlete Dafne Schippers, who has found her form in sprint. It was blistering in the first 50 metres and that's where she won it.

    "Jodie had to not give up and not lose sight that her strength is in the final stages. Dafne has to make a real decision about whether to go back to the heptathlon. She can compete now, it's incredible running."
